Recently, a conference on "The variants of the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict settlement from the Azerbaijani viewpoint" had taken place
at the Conrad Adenauer Foundation's office in Berlin. Elhan Nuriev,
director of the Center of Strategic Sciences under the Azerbaijani
President and Johannes Rau, member of the International Security
Forum under the German Military Academy were invited to have speeches.
NKR Permanent Representative in Germany Gayane Apinyan and Ambassador
of Azerbaijan in Germany Parviz Shahbazov also partook in the
conference, held by senior officer of the Conrad Adenauer Foundation
Peter Hefele. The Azerbaijani representative developed his speech in
the context of the Azerbaijani territorial integrity and threat of
the Karabakh conflict settlement by force. In response, officer of
the German International Institute on Security Issues Uwe Halbach
and representative of the Union of the Christian-Democratic and
Christian-Social Parties in the Council of Europe Rayner Dornzaifer
noted that they treated the Azerbaijani territorial integrity with
understanding; however the existing new realities and facts should
be taken into account in solving the conflict. Uwe Halbach added that
the demand of territorial integrity is not absolute and sometimes not
realistic, exemplifying Georgia. Rayner Dornzaifer advised Azerbaijan
to learn a lesson from the history of Germany that, according to
him, after The World War II had to accept the existing reality, thus
guaranteeing peace and security in Europe. He expressed confidence
that in case of refusing the territorial integrity, Azerbaijan will
contribute to the peaceful settlement of the conflict and together
with Armenia will be given great assistance from the Council of
Europe for liquidating the consequences of the conflict. In response
to Nuriev's threatening to solve the Karabakhi issue by use of force,
Gayane Apinyan in her turn reminded how many people from both sides
sacrificed during the previous war and in what unfavorable conditions
the people of Nagorno Karabakh managed to uphold their natural right
to liberty.
"Today, in spite of Azerbaijan's furious armament, Nagorno Karabakh,
due to its high state orderliness, is incomparably stronger and is
ready to defend its independence", she said. Gayane Apinyan advised
the Azerbaijani representatives to refuse the revanchist aspirations
and respect the right of the people of Nagorno Karabakh to independent
existence.
